The Sword and the Hounds - Finlayson A. B.

Arthur Crazy was drunk and seeing ghosts. 

Now he's just drunk. The dead are silent, and Arthur is worried he might be living up to the family name. But after going back to where the Crazy people live and spending months sleeping off hangovers in his childhood bed, it's finally time to return to the land of the living. 

Unfortunately, the dead are not done with Arthur. 

The hounds are stirring.

The guardians are moving.

The Shadowmen are watching.

And the sword in Arthur's possession is calling them all.

They're on their way, but you know what Britain is like-public transport is a joke. Especially at Christmas, it could take some time. 

Some people have skeletons in their closet. Arthur has ghosts in his dreams and a sword under his bed... and everyone wants it! The dead, the living, and those dancing on the edge. 

Evil stirs in Yorkshire.

Britain needs a hero.

Arthur needs a coffee. 

On the moors, the devil rises.
